Hello Ponyo,
I’m reaching out as part of a Cornell University academic study investigating the potential for user-facing tools to help improve discussion quality within Wikipedia discussion spaces (such as talk pages, noticeboards, etc.). We chose to reach out to you because you have been highly active on various discussion pages .
The study centers around a prototype tool, ConvoWizard, which is designed to warn Wikipedia editors when a discussion they are replying to is getting tense and at risk of derailing into personal attacks or incivility. More information about ConvoWizard and the study can be found at our research project page on meta-wiki.
If this sounds like it might be interesting to you, you can use this link to sign up and install ConvoWizard. Of course, if you are not interested, feel free to ignore this message.
If you have any questions or thoughts about the study, our team is happy to discuss! You may direct such comments to me or to my collaborator, Cristian_at_CornellNLP.
Thank you for your consideration.

The protection template you added to this article one year ago came off today, and our favorite U.K. sockpuppet was right back at it within minutes. Please put back under extended protection when you have a chance. Bgsu98 (Talk) 17:07, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
As far as I know, CUs have very limited options regarding hammering IPs in a SPI. So I like your advice how to proceed with an SPI.
I have on my talk page a list of the identified problematic ranges. And on request of @ HJ Mitchell:, I am now creating a list of the articles the vandal targets.
So please advice. The Banner talk 22:53, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
Hello, I see that you indefinitely blocked Zippyroe, a promotional SPA who created this draft, earlier today. I thought I'd bring it to your attention that a draft promoting the same non-notable individual is still up. Is this worth deleting on the grounds of advertising and promotion? JeffSpaceman ( talk) 23:12, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
Request to remove extended protection for the wikipedia page: "A-League Men records and statistics". Page has not been updated significantly since the protection has been put up. 103.27.152.125 ( talk) 18:22, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
They've been posting non-English promotional stuff on their talk page for a while. I don't think they should have TPA. —asparagusus (interaction) sprouts! 17:26, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
I saw that you protected the page Andrea Muzii a while ago. Some content looks outdated on the page. The problem is that memory sports is a small niche so people that can edit with the current protection probably don't know about that. What about reducing the protection? And if the vandalism start again, going back to the protection. 87.7.233.180 ( talk) 15:29, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi Ponyo, mind taking a look at شاب مراكشي? They are creating quite a few likely non-notable articles about Moroccan musicians but the more immediate concern is it appears they tried to hijack Simon Martin (artist) by moving it to Simodmart (artist), a likely non-notable Moroccan musician. Shortly after the move a Moroccan IP came along and changed the date of birth from 1965 to 2004 so I thought CU might be helpful. Also, it seems you may know French and it looks like they have had issues also at fr. wiki (and ar.wiki). Not that you can do anything at another project but it might be helpful to understand their activity. S0091 ( talk) 19:16, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Hey Ponyo, you blocked German Guy 2784 for sockpuppetry 30 August 2023.
I have recently ran into two different editors( FedayiChristian ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) & Hungryarno1234 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)) doing the same edits as German Guy 2784 and wanted your opinion if this was sock or meat puppetry. Thank you for looking at this. -- Kansas Bear ( talk) 22:09, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
Hi, regarding rowing pages, more specifically Ashish (Rower) in which you intervened, I am currently waiting for several PRODs I initiated over the weekend to run their course, after which I will initiate a batch AfD process, as the articles in question categorically fail WP:GNG. I have a full proposal written out and ready to go, but as I say I'm waiting for the 7-day PROD grace period to run out before intiating the AfD. Rowing007 ( talk) 19:35, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
not all verifiable information must be included, and that
[t]he responsibility for achieving consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content.In any case, it might interest you to read the full arguments I will present in the AfD next week. I won't touch the articles in question between now and then except to add AfD notices when the time comes. For now it seems my PRODs have stirred up a hornet's nest; I'm trying to abate the empassioned response from those opposing my PRODs. If my AfD fails, I will seek to improve the articles by cleaning them up in very precise and measured ways; I would appreciate a cessation of the blind reversions at that point, as I truly did bring about improvements with my previous edits, and there would have been a middle ground that maintains the cleaner sentences while potentially also keeping sources, but we'll cross that bridge if we get to it. I will say though, the sheer volume of nearly identical BLPs of disputed notability created by Davidindia (and perhaps others) throughout the past month makes this a challenging issue to tackle. Regards. Rowing007 ( talk) 20:44, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
Hello Ponyo. In February of this year you blocked 71.234.178.78 for block evasion. As you can see from their edit history, their main editing habit before being blocked was disputing what is a single and what is a "promotional single". Well, for the past several days, I'm quite sure this editor has returned on multiple addresses in the range 2601:180:0:0:0:0:0:0/32. Also, another giveaway this is the same editor: they tell anybody who posts on their talk page to "mind your business" [2]. They've done that again [3]. Ping @ Ad Orientem: as they've just blocked them on one IP. Ss 112 04:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for blocking them; can you please remove their contributions so nobody else sees these disparaging contributions about me? 1033Forest ( talk) 22:19, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
Hi, you blocked an editor yesterday who had posted on my talk page. In case it makes any difference, I think the timing was a coincidence, and they were actually a sock of Soutut, rather than the person who keeps trying to impersonate me. Many thanks. Spike 'em ( talk) 13:24, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi Ponyo. Regarding this user:
Mushroomi! ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
I've looked at their global contributions and I believe that this user could possible be a sockpuppet of User:They call me lily. Could I request a Checkuser on this account? If confirmed, I'll then take it to the steward requests for global block.
Thank you. 🛧 Midori No Sora♪🛪 ( ☁=☁=✈) 23:19, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
Since our favorite IP can’t keep her hand out of the pie, are you willing to lock down this article? Six months should cover it. Bgsu98 (Talk) 13:46, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
I apologize if this now sounds like a broken record to you, but that sockpuppet discovered that their being reported and likely made this account to evade the global block. Their edits on the Simple Wiki are very similar to that of Mushroomi! (especially that signature). 🛧 Midori No Sora♪🛪 ( ☁=☁=✈) 19:07, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
@ Ponyo Hi, I was wondering if Allmovie is an acceptable source for WP:BLP? I've recently been seeing constantly used as a ref for DOBs(it's by the same editor), however I've been reverting them because it's reliability is extremely questionable. It has the incorrect DOBs for some actors. The main reason it's questionable is because like Allocine it has the falsified information regarding Laverne Cox's DOB. [4] I don't know if it's user-generated or not, but it's the latter, I think it should treated the same way as Rotten Tomatoes as it seems like biography information is just being taken from other sites. I think I may have asked about this on the reliable sources noticeboard a few months back, but I didn't get any replies. Kcj5062 ( talk) 11:17, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
EDIT: Okay I looked at the bottom of Cox's Allmovie page. It has a fact sheet. It looks like a near copy/paste of her biography at TVguide.com [5] I looked at the fact sheets for other actors bios at AM and it's near the exact same as the TVG bios. So yeah, this definitely looks like it's just copying/pasting from other sites. Kcj5062 ( talk) 11:24, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
A few days after you blocked Sssaaraa, a new account Letusdothis has shown up with similar editing patterns. Krimuk2.0 ( talk) 08:04, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

If you let me know the SPI case that WikiiUse is attached to, I have some additional evidence I found while researching another related SPI. I can post there or I can send you the info via email.

Hallo, I notice you reverted edits to June Spencer as being the work of a sock. The images used in that version include some dubious-looking additions to Commons: File:Spencer in 1919.jpg is a 1919 "own work" photo (I've nominated it for deletion), and the same editor has uploaded several other images.

Hi,
I am requesting to add edit protection to article /info/en/?search=Durefishan_Saleem as several ip's posting irrelevant edits and trash things in talk page.
Thanks Devas2905 ( talk) 16:30, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
I see you reverted my (accidentally logged out) edit back in August. The more specific information came from RDNS a long time ago; one used to be able to tell where an IP was coming from based on the school initials in RDNS compared to the list of schools at www.collier.k12.fl.us. For whatever reason the IPs don't have RDNS anymore, but based on the editing patterns I don't think the IP assignments have changed. It's not a big deal really, but I thought the extra information could be useful to administrators (personally, if I were an administrator, I would be more likely to give a K-5 elementary school with no history of productive edits a nice long schoolblock than a 9-12 high school or even a 6-8 middle school, because realistically the only ones who are going to contribute anything useful are the staff and maybe a few gifted fifth graders, and if the staff have never productively edited before, the likelihood of collateral damage is slim to none). PCHS-NJROTC (Messages)Have a blessed day. 00:04, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
Hey, does Tubaman2015 = ImTheCool? Binksternet obviously thinks so, and I can see why topic-wise and a bit of article intersection, but Tuba uses the visual editor, and I don't think any of ITC's socks has used the visual editor. All in all, I'm uncomfortable blocking without technical corroboration. Thanks.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 01:30, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Ponyo, I am writing to ask why my edit was blocked. The text I added to the page regarding Lisa Helps a page was a neutral point of view, as well as facts.

Chucky Jenn looks like (Un)Lucky Duke to me, but I'm not familiar the master you tagged. Could you give a 2O? There's a lot of logged out editing happening too. -- ferret ( talk) 02:34, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
They reverted at First Balkan War within minutes of his block expiring [6] [7]. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Khirurg ( talk) 03:06, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
If you let me know the SPI case that WikiiUse is attached to, I have some additional evidence I found while researching another related SPI. I can post there or I can send you the info via email. The IP range seems to follow a few of these accounts before and after they edit. CNMall41 ( talk) 22:51, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Template-salt in mainspace?. Thank you. You are recieving this semi-automated notification because you template-protected a page in mainspace. This is not an indicator of any wrongdoing on your part.

You are, obviously, welcome to remove or to lengthen the protection I just placed on your talk page. -- Yamla ( talk) 21:31, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

It appears that Intiy1 may be Truong Gia Bao112 attempting to bypass their block on the page, especially with this edit. -- ARose Wolf 20:08, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
Hallo, I notice you reverted edits to June Spencer as being the work of a sock. The images used in that version include some dubious-looking additions to Commons: File:Spencer in 1919.jpg is a 1919 "own work" photo (I've nominated it for deletion), and the same editor has uploaded several other images.

You G5'd this back in October. Its creator was an IP. There's a draft of the same recently created by a new editor with 55 edits. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:38, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
Hit the wrong button there and undid your appreciated revert! Fixed now. Blythwood ( talk) 22:20, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi,
I am requesting to add edit protection to article /info/en/?search=Durefishan_Saleem as several ip's posting irrelevant edits and trash things in talk page.
Thanks Devas2905 ( talk) 16:30, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
I see you reverted my (accidentally logged out) edit back in August. The more specific information came from RDNS a long time ago; one used to be able to tell where an IP was coming from based on the school initials in RDNS compared to the list of schools at www.collier.k12.fl.us. For whatever reason the IPs don't have RDNS anymore, but based on the editing patterns I don't think the IP assignments have changed. It's not a big deal really, but I thought the extra information could be useful to administrators (personally, if I were an administrator, I would be more likely to give a K-5 elementary school with no history of productive edits a nice long schoolblock than a 9-12 high school or even a 6-8 middle school, because realistically the only ones who are going to contribute anything useful are the staff and maybe a few gifted fifth graders, and if the staff have never productively edited before, the likelihood of collateral damage is slim to none). PCHS-NJROTC (Messages)Have a blessed day. 00:04, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
Hey, does Tubaman2015 = ImTheCool? Binksternet obviously thinks so, and I can see why topic-wise and a bit of article intersection, but Tuba uses the visual editor, and I don't think any of ITC's socks has used the visual editor. All in all, I'm uncomfortable blocking without technical corroboration. Thanks.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 01:30, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Ponyo, I am writing to ask why my edit was blocked. The text I added to the page regarding Lisa Helps a page was a neutral point of view, as well as facts. I think not telling the whole story is truly a form of censorship, and with that I hope you can replace what was written. Thank you. MikeRibe ( talk) 00:06, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
